This is my new favourite quiz on Jetpunk. Thank you!

I had to read the no. 15 article twice before I even had the first clue what it was going on about. I'm still not totally sure.

Thanks so much! The last one is indeed a very odd and confusing title for an article.

Good choices. I was going to suggest JetPunk and was pleasantly surprised to see it included.

Yeah, we finally got it to work last year. After countless past failures, I, EytanMelech, baptistegorce, and another user who does not wish to be named, were all able to work to make a proper Wikipedia page. It's one of our proudest contributions for this community - and I'm glad it all went according to plan.

It'd be great if the html weblinks in the explanation had a blank target so it opened a new tab when you click on a link. Funny quiz, anyway!

Thanks! The html change should be in effect now.
